USB connector breaks
I have now broken the USB power adapter twice, once from simply tipping it over on my table and rendering it unusable. The light itself it great and has made a big difference in my morning wakefulness, but the durability of the product is poor. Why they use USB type C for a simple 2 wire connection is beyond me. I have gone to the length of soldering the leads from the ...

perfect little winter friend :)
I am very happy with this light, it's small and lightweight and I like the way you can change both the brightness and the hue of the light. I'm replacing a 25yo light box so this is a great upgrade, very nice!

Great aside from the finicky Power button
The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because I have to finagle with the power button to get it to come on.

Works great
Works great. Tiny and can easily stay out on my counter so it’s easy to fit into my routine. And it works for my anxiety about the upcoming winter and loss of daylight. I feel much more relaxed

Indoor Sunshine!!
Since I live in Canada, we don't get much sunlight at all in the winter. I love starting my mornings off with the invigorating bright light from this lamp!

Here Comes the Sun
Comprehensive user's manual. Product is as was expected. My favorite features of this model are: It's shape is like having a little Sun on my Michigan winter desk. Adjustibility in light intensity is key to my avoiding headaches. We're batting 90% there. My absolute favorite is the timer feature. I can turn that on and truly make the Happy Light a part of the background...

Great product
I've had the HappyLight Alba for a few years now, and it really helps me feel more alert and have more energy during the dark winter months in the PNW. I set it up when I'm doing my morning yoga and it makes a big difference in how I feel.

The charging cord will break
I have purchased 2 models of this lamp, both of which no longer work. The design of the charging cord is flawed. The charging cord and the port will break, making the lamp an expensive paperweight. Verilux knows this is a common issue with this lamp, yet they still continue to sell a defective product. They used to sell a replacement charging cord, but they discontinued...

Wonderful light!
We bought this just under a year ago, and it really has made a big difference for us. It has become part of our regular routine, which also means my husband and I have quiet uninterrupted conversation time as we set together with the light. Sadly, the power cord broke (so 4 stars not 5) so we are waiting patiently for the new one and missing our conversations. But it is...

Disappointed
We have used Verilux reading lamps for years and have several in our home. We were excited to try the Happy Light during the short days of our New York winter, especially in a home office area that tends
to be dark. Unfortunately, no matter which brightness setting, hue or location it was just too bright and "in your face", not therapeutic. We tried to get used to...

Put some sun in your day and be energized!
I need my Verilux Alba light in the fall, winter, and early spring, as living in the northern part of the country is cold and dark for much of the year. I get sluggish and depressed without enough light. The Alba light helps me to wake up, be happier, and more energetic throughout the dark winter season. I am more
productive, too. I have been using these lights for...
